Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 613: The panel has issued a quest.

"Seriously, where did Xincheng go?"

The crossroads at Su Na Mountain.

After talking with the local police, Daigo learned that the thief who broke the seal had already fled in a car. While puzzled, he thought of the "New Town" where someone was wandering around.

Suddenly I can't find them and can't contact them.

"Could they have gone back to the mountains?"

Daigo muttered to himself, glancing back at the shrine, wondering whether he should go up and take a look, when he suddenly noticed Asami Hiroko and her group out of the corner of his eye.

They disappeared into the mountains and forests in the blink of an eye.

Why are there still people here?

"Hey, you guys, come back here!"

"rustle!"

Fujiwara Saiji carefully avoided Daigo's gaze and looked at his teammate walking ahead with a bitter expression.

"Do you really want to go back to that horrible place?"

"You saw it too," Hojo Emu said with light steps, "It's rare for a mission to be released on the data panel, we can't miss it no matter what."

"That's right," Takumi Onoue chimed in, "This data panel must be related to our mentor in some way. Isn't our main purpose in entering the dungeon to find our mentor?"

"That's true..."

Fujiwara Saiji stared at the samurai sword materialized in Asami Hiroko's hand, his expression growing even more bitter.

"Can such a broken knife really be used to fight monsters?"

Everyone was about to leave Mount Sukuna when a quest suddenly appeared, and they were given an ordinary samurai sword as the quest item.

"The Sukuna Oni hasn't turned into a monster yet, so we must speed things up."

Hiroko Asami remained calm.

"hurry up!"

"Yes."

"Don't worry too much, senior," Hojo Emu comforted him. "If I'm not mistaken, the quest item should be the stolen Iryu Sword. Haven't you heard? This sword was used to seal Sukuna Oni."

"That's a seal."

Fujiwara no Saiji sighed inwardly.

He couldn't help but worry.

In addition to issuing missions, the panel data itself has become much more detailed, listing rough monster stats in addition to knight stats.

D is level 6, C is level 10, B is level 100, and A starts at level 1000.

They, who can't even reach D rank, are using a samurai sword to fight monsters that might be B rank?

Level 5 fighting against level 100 or higher?

Although the level is only a reference and has limited correlation with actual combat strength, it is still important to consider the extent of the gap.

With such a difference in level, even if it were his former mentor, Decade, he would have to run away, let alone Royal Bee.

You can't exactly run over and fix the monster's feet.

"Let's start planning the battle now," Hiroko Asami said, handing the Well Dragon Sword to Saiji Fujiwara. "The Royal Bee can ascend to the next level; you'll be in charge of the attack later."

"I knew it."

Fujiwara Saiji's breathing quickened, and he felt the Iryu Sword in his hand was incredibly heavy, as if he could see the figure of a solemn-faced samurai.

"Are we really not going to have to face monsters?"

"Our mission is to prevent Sukuna-ki from being resurrected; the appearance of a monster means the mission has failed."

Watari, who was walking at the back, could feel the immense pressure emanating from Fujiwara Saiji.

"Don't worry, you're not alone."

"Stop dawdling," Hiroko Asami snapped, frowning as she sensed the mist. "If we don't even have this much courage, what right do we have to explore the Ultra Dungeon? Nexus did it all, didn't it?"

Fujiwara Saiji couldn't help but want to complain.

When they entered Nexus, the entire storyline had ended. They hadn't even seen many A-class or B-class alien beasts, let alone C-class ones.

"call!"

Daigo followed his instincts through the fog and discovered that the destination was indeed Jinglong Temple.

"Who are these guys?"

"Dagu!"

Xia Chuan carried the man in sunglasses out of the side path and called out to Daigo, who was trying to catch up with the Knights.

"I've found a man who's fainted. Please help me get him down the mountain."

"New City?" Daigo looked over in surprise. "But I have one here too..."

"You mean those strange guys? Leave them to me," Xia Chuan interrupted. "I'll go find them."

"Huh? But..."

Daigo looked bewildered, wondering why he was specifically asked to escort the man in sunglasses down the mountain.

Or rather, why did "New Town" want to take his place on the mountain?

Thinking of the subtle anomalies from before, Daigo's expression changed, and he stammered as he looked at "New City" again.

"Shinjo, you're not...possessed by something, are you?" Daigo chuckled tentatively. "Like Sukuna Oni or that samurai named Ida Iiryu or something..."

"you guess?"

After handing the man in sunglasses to Daigo, Xia Chuan paused slightly, then disappeared into the white mist of the forest before Daigo could ask any more questions.

"sand!"

"What do you mean?"

The white fog obscured the intersection again. Standing there, Daigo Na Na asked in confusion, wanting to catch up but unable to leave the man in sunglasses behind.

"Could it be that I was right?"

As Daigo carried the man in sunglasses down the mountain, he glanced once more at the spot where Natsukawa had disappeared.

"It shouldn't be Sukuna Oni, it's that samurai Ida Iryu? But... it doesn't seem impossible."

Thinking of this, Daigo breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, there's no need to worry too much about Shinjo for now, otherwise he won't know how to explain it to Mayumi when he gets back.

We can't afford any more accidents happening in the new town.

"Dagu?"

At the foot of the mountain, Zong Fang was worried about the increasing amount of white fog. When he saw Da Gu coming down with a man wearing sunglasses on his back, he hurriedly asked.

"What's going on up there?"

"above……"

Daigo froze as soon as he opened his mouth.

He didn't know whether he should report the current state of Xincheng.

Let's wait and see how things go.

"I'll go back and take another look. It seems the new town is still in the mountains."

"Wait!" Munakata frowned and grabbed Daigo. "The abnormal reaction is getting stronger and stronger. We've already detected quite a few scattered, enormous life forms. We can't go in any further!"

"But the new city..."

"Horui is trying to dispel the fog, and we should be able to make contact soon."

"call out!"

Deep in the mountains, Flying Swallow 1 slowly flew over the heads of Hiroko Asami and the others, but they failed to spot each other due to the obstruction of the White Mist Forest.

The engine noise was almost entirely drowned out by the eerie wind below.

As soon as the knights approached the Well Dragon Temple, it was as if they had entered an unknown space like hell, with the Sukuna Oni head floating in the center continuously emitting a strange laugh.

"Heh heh, so Jinglong is too scared to come himself, so he's entrusting you trash with this?"

"It doesn't seem so scary after all."

Upon seeing the terrifying monster's head, Fujiwara Saiji actually felt much more relaxed, and even thought that Sukuna Oni was a bit weak.

It's better to have one head than to face a monster head-on.

Not everyone can use the Knight System to fight monsters like the mentor.

"Not scary?" Sukuna-ki stopped laughing angrily. "Did that sword give you courage? Foolish humans, that sword is no longer effective against me. Even if Iryu came in person, he would only be throwing his life away! I will devour you piece by piece! Hehehe!"

"You're such a fool!" Hiroko Asami shouted, completely unfazed by Sukuna-ki.

The trainees spread out to provide cover, the Knight System materialized, and THEBEE Insect Device flapped its wings and flew out into the void, only to be caught in Fujiwara Saiji's hand with a deep voice.

No matter what you thought before, you have to go all out once the battle begins.

This is a lesson he learned from his mentor.

"Transform!"

"Transform!"

"Transform!"

"henshin~!"

Four armor-like light effects simultaneously unfolded on the trainees, while Hiroko Asami had already inserted the Gale Memory into the back, controlling the whirlwind to dispel the resentment in advance.

"here we go?"

Xia Chuan stopped outside the battlefield and turned on the Victory Team's communicator, which was making strange noises.

Horii and the others were calling out continuously.

"New Town! Can you hear me? Where are you...?"

"Sizzle!"

Xia Chuan's gaze swept over the flying Flying Swallow 1 above, then returned to the Sukuna Oni space, which resembled a spiritual realm. His glowing eyes reflected the figures of the Royal Bee Rising Time in a fierce battle.

"I'm Xincheng, here at Jinglong Temple. Everything is normal here."
